A woman was found dead Thursday inside a Huntington Park vitamin store, and police believe the death may be tied to a daytime robbery of the shop, which sells herbal remedies and vitamins on a bustling street.

Huntington Park police discovered the body after they were called at 6 p.m. Thursday to the Global Nature store at 2703 E. Florence Ave., said Lt. Christopher Bonzer.

Homicide detectives are investigating the case and coroner’s officials are trying to determine the cause of death.
